One teaspoon of white granulated sugar contains approximately 4 grams of simple carbohydrates, delivering around 16 calories with no other significant nutritional value. This seemingly small amount can add up quickly, impacting your daily carb and calorie intake, especially when you consider how often sugar is added to drinks and meals.

A single cup of grapes can contain over 27 grams of carbohydrates, an amount that will certainly break ketosis for most people. The ketogenic diet relies on severe carbohydrate restriction to force the body into a state of fat-burning, and the high sugar content of grapes makes them a poor choice for staying in ketosis.
